Interests
Play accordion music publicly in parks and on the street (mostly Yann Tiersen and Beirut), I dance tango, build startup companies, constantly striving to learn profusely from diverse fields-- behavioral economics, psychotherapy, social psychology, philosophy, design, habit formation, etc. Spend a lot of time thinking about how technology can actually make the world a better place, and diving deep into the meaning of "better" :)
I'm a world expert on all the ways things influence us : from the physiological to the behavioral to the social.
